Post-Pregnancy Procedures

1 Offer
There are no words to describe the joys of motherhood. However, pregnancy, childbirth, and even breastfeeding can be hard on a woman’s body—especially if you’ve had more than one child. In my “I Can’t Believe You’re a Mom!” Makeover™—available exclusively at my Houston facility—I combine multiple procedures into one mommy makeover operation. The ultimate goal is to reverse the impact on your breasts and abdomen so that you look and feel rejuvenated. To add to the experience, each mommy makeover surgery is completely customized. That means you’ll get a tailored treatment that addresses your specific needs and goals. You won’t just feel like Super Mom, you’ll look like it, too.

Breast Surgery

1 Offer
I specialize in a number of different breast enhancement procedures here in Houston, including breast augmentation, breast implant removal, breast lift, and breast reduction. With each type of surgical breast procedure, my ultimate goal is to always ensure you look and feel your absolute best. Every breast surgery is unique, and I’ll work closely with you to ensure the result is custom-tailored to your specific needs. For example, I can help in cases where you've lost a large amount of weight and are experiencing lost size and shape. I can also help in cases where aging or pregnancy has resulted in sagging and loss of firmness, or in situations where breasts are asymmetrical. On the other end of the spectrum, I specialize in breast reductions—a surgery which has the highest patient satisfaction rate in all of plastic surgery—to help you feel more confident and comfortable.

Skin Tightening

1 Offer
Making you look and feel better in and out of clothes is our priority, and the Steely Plastic Surgery center in Houston will help you get there. Treatments include liposuction, a sculpting process where excess fat is removed via a tiny incision in a discreet area of the body. This procedure can be combined with a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), which dramatically reduces the appearance of a protruding midsection that's caused by fat and/or loose skin. Our Houston facility also specializes in arm lifts (brachioplasty) to create a more defined upper arm, as well as full-body lifts. The latter option is ideal in situations of extreme weight loss, where excess skin is impacting your daily life. These procedures include a belt lipectomy, thigh lift, or lower body lift. As always, I will work closely with you to create a tailored approach that helps you reach your aesthetic goals.

10 Years Later I'm Still Happy

I realized today that it's been 10 years since I had my surgery with Dr. Steely, and I am still so happy with my results. Every time I am topless and see myself in the mirror, I love what I see. And that's every single time I am about to take a shower or am changing clothes, so imagine how happy I feel all the time. I specifically went to Dr. Steely because, on his website, he promised natural results. I held off on getting breast implants for a long time because I was so afraid of those rock-hard implants that look bolted to a woman's chest. But luckily, he delivered exactly what he had promised. My breasts have since looked noticeably bigger while looking natural, and they're still perky to this day. I was also pleased with our initial consultation. When the consult ended, Dr. Steely said it was OK if I chose a different doctor, as long as they're a licensed, board-certified surgeon. And on the day of the surgery, he had great bedside manners. My emergency contact was one of my male relatives, and Dr. Steely asked if I wanted him out of the room before he took my hospital gown top off to evaluate my chest one last time. Some other doctor would've just removed it without being aware of who else was in the room, but Dr. Steely made sure not to put me in an awkward situation. Back then, I never thought about writing a review. I didn't see the point until now that I realized reviews are there to help potential patients, not to benefit the doctor. I hope I can help someone who may have otherwise chosen a bad doctor.

5 Stars to Dr Steely and His Team

Dr steely did a breast lift+implants procedure on me 2 years ago. Not to be dramatic, but he truly changed my life. I wanted it done quick since I would have family in town to help with my kids and he was able to squeeze me in at the end of the year, if my memory serves me right, within 2 weeks. He and his whole team are professional, warm and welcoming. I couldn't have had a better experience. 2 years later, i'm healed, scar is light & continuing to fade. I dont see it unless i'm looking for it and you cant see it if I'm in my swim suit. My girls look good.. real good!

Dr. Magic Hands!!!

I numerous consultations before choosing a surgeon. Dr. Steely genuinely wanted what was best for me. He was focused on understanding my body’s capabilities rather than just trying to please me. While he wasn't the most expensive option, he was the best choice for my plastic surgery needs. Please feel free to reach out to me!!!

Incredible Treatment, Even Better Surgery Results

Let me start by saying that Dr. Steely was my preferred choice a few years ago when I read he was one of the top plastic surgeons in Houston in a Newsweek article. My experience from the very beginning was nothing short of wonderful. I had previously seen his before and after gallery and read his reviews prior to scheduling my consult. The entire experience along with his incredible staff, I could not have asked for more. Dr. Steely is kind, professional, incredibly talented and I am beyond happy with my surgery and results. I highly recommend consulting with Dr. Steely for your mommy makeover. You might walk in feeling like a food stamp. But you’ll definitely walk out looking like a million bucks! Haha!

Fantastic Surgeon and Amazing Staff!

Absolutely amazing results. I was so insecure before but Dr. Steely and his staff did a fantastic job with explaining everything to me and my breast augmentation looks phenomenal! I traveled from Louisiana (closer to the MS line) to Texas for my augmentation and follow ups. It was a lit of time however I made the right choice! Dr. steely is the way to go!

5 years and I couldn’t be happier

It’s been 5 years and I couldn’t be happier with the results and how amazing Dr. Steely is! His bedside manners are next to none and his staff is just as great! Would choose anyone else. I wasn’t sure when I began this journey, but Dr Steely was thorough and explained the procedure patiently and ensure I had no questions. After this, I was ready.

8 weeks post-surgery and I have never felt more like myself

I am 23 years old, 5 foot even, and weigh approximately 100 lbs. I wanted a breast augmentation for reasons none other than feeling feminine and more confident. I went to 5 different consultations with various doctors in the Houston, TX area, and Dr. Steely + staff made the decision to go with them extremely easy. They are down to earth people that made me feel comfortable the entire process. After coming to the conclusion that I wanted Doctor Steely to perform my surgery, we decided on silicone implants that were 250cc's. Mrs. Cindy and I discussed dates to have the surgery that best accommodated my schedule. There were plenty of options and I chose one that was about a month after my first meeting with them. I was instructed to stop consuming caffeinated beverages and most medications that cause blood thinning about two weeks before my surgery date. Surgery day finally arrived and I got dressed in the hospital attire. Dr. Steely and the anesthesiologist met me in pre-op and gave me a Valium to calm my nerves, which helped greatly. The surgery lasted around 40 minutes and I felt zero pain once I woke up from the anesthesia, (I remember asking Dr. Steely a hug after the surgery and he gave me the biggest bear hug! SO awesome to have a doctor who isn't arrogant and robotic). The implants sat high on my chest and were firm to the touch for about one to two weeks after surgery. I had a post-op appointment about a week after for Dr. Steely to check everything out and he said they looked great. He provided clear instructions as to what tasks I would be limited to, including lifting anything over 5-10 lbs., sleeping on my back, still postponing intake on most medications, only showers no baths, and how to "massage" the implants. I followed his instructions to a T. Around two or three weeks after my initial post-op appointment, my stitches were removed and I bought a properly fitting bra from a boutique Mrs. Cindy referred me to, along with a discount for my purchase. Fast forward two or three more weeks, I went to my final post-op appointment, and Dr. Steely took my after pictures. He also felt around the implants, ensuring me that everything was healing properly. I am now 8 weeks post-surgery and I have never felt more like myself! This is something I never in a million years thought would be achievable for me! They look natural and are proportionate to my petite frame. I could not be more satisfied with Doctor Steely's artistry and talent, along with his understanding of each individual's desired result. If you are on the fence about which board-certified surgeon to perform your breast augmentation, do yourself a favor and pick Dr. Steely and his amazing team.

Tomorrow is the BIG Day!

I'm 43 and I've nursed 4 babies for a year+ each. Prior to motherhood I was a full C cup and I had perky, perfect breasts. During nursing I was a full D cup and I loved how I looked and filled out my clothing. After a decade of birthing, nursing and raising my babies I breasts were a 34B. I'm ready to feel like my old self again. I'm ready to not slip out the top of my bras when I bend over to pick something up or slip out the bottom of my bras when I lift my arms up. Overall, my breasts are in decent shape. I will not require a lift because I never bottomed out. The problem was that I lost the fullness on top of my breasts. Anyone else like this? I toggle between feelings of "I should feel grateful they're in the good shape they are in," and, "I just want to feel like me again." So, the latter feeling was the deciding factor. I'm doing it for ME! Here are my pictures pre-BA. Updated on 5 Aug 2023: Surgery went amazing! We started at 7:15am and I was home by 10:30am. Once home I slept until 3:15 and I took my first look. They are perfect! I was fully prepared to look terrible with boxy breasts clear p to my collarbone. I didn't expect hem to already be perfect. 375cc left, 400cc right I ate a little soup and walked around my house a bit. I took my antibiotic, muscle relaxer and pain med before bed even bough I wasn't feeling terrible. I woke up this morning feeling like I did a big upper body workout but I haven't needed any pain meds. I'll take some tonight just to help me relax.
